Hey all,
I am using an E6600 on a Asus P5B Deluxe Wifi and just got it run completely stable at 3.5 Ghz. However, in the bios my vcore is set to 1.4125v, but using speedfan it says its at 1.37v. Right now, I am trusting speedfan unless someone think speedfan is giving the wrong reading...
Anyways, whenever I run dual instances of prime95, according to speedfan, the voltage drops to 1.34v and stays stable with +- .01v as long as prime95 is running. As soon as I stop both instances, the vcore returns to 1.37v.
Anyone know if this is normal and why that's happening?
Thanks!
EDIT:
Intel E6600 @ 3.5Ghz
Asus P5B Dlx wifi
Vcore idle: 1.368v
Vcore on full load: 1.34v
2 sticks of 1gb ram of OCZ XTC Platinum @ default settings for now
Western Digital Raptor 76Gb
Seagate 500 GB
ATI x300 (placeholder for now)
750W Silverstone PSU
